Chardonnay... Video (MV)

So I was sitting on the terrace after a long day
And it got me thinking about how to overcome distance
As most of my closest friends are far away
And it never gets easier
Especially after you've been with them every day for so long, you know?

The long day is over
I pull a chair, thoughts hit as hard as a strong wind
I think of them, call them up
Their voices hit close to home
Can't believe the fun is almost over
The bottle's almost empty
And we haven't talked about everything we wanted to
Guess we'll catch up some other time

So many words were still unspoken
And while I consider them as my special token
The time for parting comes, can't keep it frozen
Can't ask for more as I'd ask for another wine glass
So let's catch up some other time

Passionate from miles away
I'm glad for what we have
But why is time hurrying so much
Leaving me with a "next time"
And who knows when that will be?

I guess I'm more in love with yesterday
With no worries and no responsibilities piling up on my doorstep
Coping with the new life you've built for yourself can be hard, you know?
You turn towards bad habits, maybe smoking, maybe drinking
Whatever, I don't blame anyone, 'cause I'm in that place just myself, too

Smoking, drinking
No matter what tomorrow holds
I guess I'll be ready
It used to be easier looking at stars
Without knowing what lies ahead
And now, when the glass is empty
I prepare for another long day

The long day is over once more
A new bottle's opened
Guess sunsets are not making it easier
When such little things fade so fast
And it's pointless to argue with time

It's almost two
I'm sitting here wishing I could sleep in
But becoming who I want to become speaks louder
And there's no rest for perfectionists
As well as no solace for tired eyes

I come home and turn the key
The room is completely empty
So I borrow another smoke
Tell myself a joke
But what's the point charging into the fray
When I can have another glass of Chardonnay?
